Challenger A2006-57-2 2-Foot Height Extension Kit for CL10
Challenger A2006-57-2 2-Foot Height Extension Kit for CL10-Series 2-Post Lifts
The Challenger A2006-57-2 is a factory-engineered 2-foot (24") column height extension kit designed exclusively for CL10-series 2-post automotive lifts. This matched-pair extension raises both columns by 24 inches (610 mm), enabling your lift to accommodate taller vehicles including full-size vans, SUVs, and lifted trucks without replacing your entire lift system. Backed by Challenger's 5-year structural parts warranty when properly installed and registered, the A2006-57-2 delivers OEM-certified fitment that preserves your lift's original load distribution, alignment, and warranty eligibility.
Challenger A2006-57-2 Features
CL10-Specific OEM Engineering
The A2006-57-2 is engineered from the factory as a dedicated structural component for CL10-series lifts. Every dimension, fastener specification, and load path has been validated against the base CL10 lift design to ensure safe integration without modification. This eliminates the compatibility uncertainty and structural risk associated with generic or improvised height extensions, giving technicians guaranteed fitment with standard manufacturer installation procedures.
Precise 24-Inch Height Increase
This extension delivers a fixed, measurable 24-inch (610 mm) height increase across the entire dual-column system. The OEM design ensures equal extension on both columns, preserving the lift's symmetrical load distribution and steering geometry during operation. Unlike stacking spacers or fabricating adapters, this certified dimension is guaranteed and repeatable, enabling accurate facility planning and ceiling clearance verification before installation.
Structural Warranty Preservation
When installed correctly, the A2006-57-2 maintains Challenger's 5-year structural parts warranty coverage. This is the only OEM extension kit engineered to preserve warranty eligibility for CL10-series lifts. Aftermarket or improvised height modifications typically void existing warranty protection, leaving your facility exposed to liability and repair costs. Warranty registration must be completed within the specified period and installation must follow documented manufacturer procedures.
Balanced Dual-Column Design
The extension kit includes a matched pair of column pieces engineered to maintain equal rise across both posts. Each extension maintains the precise synchronization tolerance required for stable, level lifting across the full 24-inch travel range. This matched-pair design eliminates the risk of tilting, binding, and uneven load concentration that accelerates wear on pump systems, seals, and arm mechanisms.
Cost-Efficient Upgrade Path
The A2006-57-2 allows you to expand your service capability for taller vehicles without purchasing a completely new extended-height lift system. By adding 24 inches of column height to your existing CL10-series lift, you gain the clearance needed for full-size vans, SUVs, and lifted trucks while protecting your original equipment investment and maintaining full structural warranty coverage.
American-Engineered Quality
Manufactured by Challenger Lifts in Louisville, Kentucky, the A2006-57-2 is built to the same rigorous quality standards as the CL10 lift itself. Every extension component is production-verified for identical performance, ensuring consistent quality and reliability across the matched pair. Challenger's American engineering and manufacturing heritage ensures precision tolerances and dependable structural integrity.
Challenger A2006-57-2 Applications
- Full-Size Van Service: The 24-inch extension provides the additional overhead clearance needed to safely lift and service tall cargo and passenger vans such as Ford Transit, Mercedes Sprinter, and Ram ProMaster models on your existing CL10 lift.
- SUV and Crossover Maintenance: Accommodate large SUVs including Chevrolet Suburban, Ford Expedition, and Toyota Sequoia that may exceed the standard CL10 column height for comfortable underbody access.
- Lifted Truck Service: Shops that regularly service aftermarket-lifted trucks benefit from the added column height, ensuring safe arm placement and proper lifting contact points on vehicles with suspension lifts or oversized tires.
- Fleet Maintenance Facilities: Commercial and municipal fleets operating tall vehicles such as ambulances, shuttle buses, and upfitted utility vans gain dedicated lift capability without investing in a separate extended-height lift system.
- Multi-Purpose Service Bays: Extend the versatility of a single CL10 lift bay to handle both standard passenger vehicles and taller specialty vehicles, maximizing the productivity and revenue potential of each service bay.

Challenger A2006-57-2 FAQ
What lifts are compatible with the A2006-57-2 extension kit?
The A2006-57-2 is designed exclusively for Challenger CL10-series 2-post lifts, such as the CL10V3. It is not compatible with other Challenger lift series (CL12, CL16, etc.) or lifts from other manufacturers. Always verify your specific lift model before ordering.
How much height does the A2006-57-2 add to my lift?
The extension kit adds exactly 24 inches (2 feet / 610 mm) to each column of your CL10-series lift. Both columns are extended equally using the matched pair of extensions included in the kit, maintaining symmetrical load distribution.
Will installing this extension void my lift's warranty?
No. When installed correctly following Challenger's documented procedures, the A2006-57-2 maintains your CL10-series lift's full structural parts warranty (5 years). However, using non-OEM extensions or improvised modifications will void your warranty. Be sure to complete warranty registration online at challengerlifts.com/register-your-lift.
Does the extension change the lifting capacity of my CL10?
The A2006-57-2 is an OEM structural component designed to integrate with your CL10 without altering the rated lifting capacity. Always refer to Challenger's specifications and your CL10 installation manual for confirmed capacity ratings after extension installation.
Can I install the A2006-57-2 myself?
While the extension uses a bolted assembly design, professional installation by a qualified lift technician is strongly recommended. Proper installation is required to maintain warranty coverage, and incorrect installation could compromise the structural integrity and safety of the lift system.
How much ceiling clearance do I need after installing the extension?
You need to add 24 inches to your current CL10 column height and verify that the total extended height provides adequate clearance below your ceiling. Account for overhead obstructions such as lighting, HVAC ductwork, sprinkler systems, and garage door tracks. Measure and confirm clearance before ordering.
What is included in the A2006-57-2 kit?
The kit includes a matched pair of 2-foot column extension pieces for both posts of your CL10-series lift, along with the required mounting hardware and fasteners. The base CL10 lift is not included and must be purchased separately.
How does this compare to buying a new extended-height lift?
The A2006-57-2 is significantly more cost-efficient than purchasing a completely new extended-height lift system. It allows you to add 24 inches of column height to your existing CL10 investment while preserving the original warranty. This is ideal for shops that already own a CL10 and need additional clearance for taller vehicles.
How long does shipping take?
The A2006-57-2 typically ships within 3-5 business days. Free freight shipping is included to commercial addresses in the 48 contiguous United States. Contact our sales team for international shipping quotes or residential delivery arrangements.
What is the return policy for this extension kit?
Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery. The product must be unopened in its original packaging with a receipt. A 20% restocking fee applies, and the buyer is responsible for return freight costs. Contact our team before initiating a return.
Do I need to modify my concrete foundation for this extension?
The A2006-57-2 bolts onto your existing CL10 columns and does not typically require new concrete work, provided your original CL10 installation meets Challenger's foundation specifications for slab thickness, PSI rating, and reinforcement. Refer to your CL10 installation manual for specific foundation requirements.
Can I use aftermarket extensions instead of the OEM A2006-57-2?
Challenger strongly advises against using aftermarket or improvised height extensions. Non-OEM components will void your structural parts warranty and may compromise the lift's load distribution, alignment, and overall safety. The A2006-57-2 is the only extension kit engineered and certified by Challenger to maintain warranty eligibility on CL10-series lifts.
